Dataport Acceptable Use Policy
Dataport is used by not so many millions of people, but we're proud of the trust placed in us. In exchange, we trust you to use our services responsibly.
You agree not to misuse the Dataport services ("Services") or help anyone else to do so. For example, you must not even try to do any of the following in connection with the Services:
- probe, scan, or test the vulnerability of any system or network
- breach or otherwise circumvent any security or authentication measures;
- access, tamper with, or use non-public areas or parts of the Services, or shared areas of the Services you haven't been invited to;
- interfere with or disrupt any user, host, or network, for example by sending a virus, overloading, flooding, spamming, or mail-bombing any part of the Services;
- access, search, or create accounts for the Services by any means other than our publicly supported interfaces (for example, "scraping" or creating accounts in bulk);
- send unsolicited communications, promotions or advertisements, or spam;
- send altered, deceptive or false source-identifying information, including "spoofing" or "phishing";
- circumvent storage space limits;
- use any atomised systems, including but not limited to "robots" or "spiders" that access the Website in a way that sends more request messages to the Website servers in a set period of time than a human can acceptably produce in the same period of time by using a conventional on-line web browser. However, this restriction does not extend to public search engines "robots" or "spiders" to copy Website's materials for the purpose of creation of publicly available searchable indices of the materials, but not caches or archives of such materials. Dataport retains the right to recall this exception either generally or in specific cases.
- use the Website in any manner that affects negatively on us, in a way that will adversely reflect on our goodwill, name, reputation or cause discomfort to us or discourage any person or enterprise from using, linking, advertising or becoming a supplier with the Website.
- publish or share materials that are unlawfully pornographic or indecent, or that contain extreme acts of violence or terrorist activity, including terror propaganda;
